Came past Bromley Court Hotel this morning about 9.00 am. Lot's of folk out to watch....a nice community spirit, I'm pleased I took the time out to pop along.
Just seen it outside the Museum of London going round the roundabout. Was a really good atmosphere. There was a gap though between all the Coca Cola, Samsung etc trucks and the guy carrying the torch though which was odd.
I'm interested in the ancient Bedford bus being used by Lloyds TSB - anyone have any info on that? My missus reckons they're using such an old vehicle to try and prove they're not wasting public money.
There were literally thousands lined around Princes St / Bank Junction.
Same in Park Street/Great Guildford Street in Southwark. Some enterprising people utilised the back of a flat bed van parked up to get a better view - hope the driver didn't mind!
Nla, as part of the touch relay promotion, you got any idea how many bottles of coke have been given away ?
They must have got through 30k in Danson Park alone yesterday !
Coke & Sport..............Thats a great way to start the Olympic legacy of getting people fit and to carry on using the facilities once the event is over.

Or, 'what a good way to satiate the thirst of those waiting in the sun for the torch to pass'?
looks like a great atmosphere in London, lots of kids there, enjoying the occassion, great to see....... Have to say that the torch relay has been a great event, and I have really enjoyed seeing the mix of ordinary kids/celebs and/distinguished.

Agreed and a fantastic antidote to Britains 'Celebrity' obsession. A great mix of people running and supporting and the miseries, cynics and nay-sayers put firmly in their place.
I enjoyed watching it in barnehurst when it came past my house. Didn't so much enjoy it tonight trying to get to charin x. Luckily trains were fine though
